if you seriously want it gone.  at some level of the prevailing "what a man will give your for it today"   Just don't complete the transaction through ebay or you have to pay a large fee.  Done right Ebay can be free marketing.

I sold lots of my grandfather's coins to pay for avionics on ebay

I'd like to have the reclining seats out of the F that is listed

Love the description. "Other than the wing is trashed it is in fine shape"

The turbo F for $42k looks neat!

I agree! I was looking at that the other day. Almost makes me want to sell mine and pick that one up and spend the difference on avionics.

I bought mine off eBay as well. Now I wish I could trade it in for one of these.

The E model with the 201 cowl and speed brakes is pretty cool.  I bet that guy is pretty quick.

I bought mine off of e-bay as well.  It had been in a hangar in TX for many years.  I too slipped a digit and was off on my bid by a factor of ten.  Negotiated a pre-buy and Russell Stallings took it more apart than it already was.  Then I had a couple of guys from the Mooney factory look at it, negotiated a price and then paid for it.  Knowingly bought it as a project airplane.  The rest is history after many years.

That was my old plane. I did everything you see on there. It was a pig when I got it. Believe me, it's got way more money in it than they're asking for. It's a great plane, and I seriously thought about buying it back. But I moved to an A36 and the wife won't give up the barn doors.

And Wings on Hope is a great organization if anyone is interested in donating their plane.

As soon as I get my 3rd class medical I'll probably go for this one... Two things that bug me about it are the 1650 SMOH and the older avionics.

Reggie - I just went and checked your plane out this past weekend. The plane is beautiful and you did a superb job with it!

Thanks! I loved that plane. I sometimes regret letting her go, but it was time to move to something bigger. I have yet to see a nicer pre-J Mooney  (of course I'm biased).
